FOREWORD

––––––––

I met Cendrine on Twitter sometime in September of 2021. What has flourished in this little time is an unexpected and profound friendship. As a person, Cendrine is a straightforward, sensitive soul who bares all for her friends. And with greatest consistency, so is her writing.

There’s a kind of heartfelt attention to the person in her work which echoes from her character. In What Will Happen Next, you will see the world through young Emma Elicia’s eyes, for all its kindness and cruelty. This is a story that acknowledges the misfortunes of life and defies them, calls the reader to the closeness of love, and soothes the soul’s loneliness. You will be saddened, surprised, and in the end, uplifted.

For my part, I saw a little piece of myself in Emma’s journey, in her need to discover something beyond the life given her. And I am confident that you will, too.
